Full Description
Square sheepfold depicted on the OS 1st and 2nd edition maps, and also still depicted on the current OS map. FC visit 2007 noted that the southwest end appears to be a reuse of an earlier, larger enclosure. The enclosure is subdivided which may relate to the later usage. The full enclosure measures circa 30m by 12m. An embanked trackway runs from the enclosure and the southwest end of the enclosure appears to have been built on top of this trackway embankment.
